Reviews of Dance Bands available in The Catskills, New York, United States

5/5 from 739 reviews
Photo of John Anthony Ferrer John Anthony Ferrer "I have hired John Anthony Ferrer to entertain my sorority reunion guests at the Bean Runner Cafe. Is amazing guitar playing as well as classic songs and popular pop tunes. John's hand the guitar really comes alive as well as the songs he plays. John is a real Rock Star, playing tunes from the Jazz era and then switching to the Pop songs of the last few decades. Then playing Blues before going into some romantic Bossa Nova. I also hired him to host and play guitar for 2022 New York Miss Teen pageant contestants. It wasn't long before he had the beautiful young ladies dancing and singing to the songs he played. A highlight to their busy schedule. To sum it up, John Anthony Ferrer's guitar wizardry will amaze you." Based in Peekskill, New York Miss Elizabeth McCorvey - The Family Resource Center Photo of Ten Most Wanted Band Ten Most Wanted Band "Music was great the energy was excellent they kept everyone on their feet all evening! Very professional can’t say enough about the horns and vocals. Would definitely recommend them for any type of function can’t wait to go hear them again!!" Based in Saratoga Springs, New York 14th September 2026 Todd Shafer - Wedding Photo of 5th Gear Overdrive 5th Gear Overdrive "I have worked with 5th Gear on several occasions at several events throughout the area and I cannot say enough about the band. Not only do they sound great and have a wide range of music in their repertoire, but even more important in my book, they are consummate professionals. I have worked with enough "diva" bands to know these guys are not that at all. An absolute pleasure to work with each and every time. If you have the chance to see these guys play or better yet have a chance to hire them for your event, do not hesitate. Just do it. You will not regret it!" Based in Binghamton, New York Ray Scott - General Manager Equinox Broadcasting Photo of Taproots Taproots "A soulful, high-energy fusion of world-class musicians creating a vibrant, inclusive community. An unmissable, immersive experience!" Based in Springfield, Massachusetts 12th March 2026 Academy Music Hall Photo of Party Train Party Train "It was great to have Party Train back at Queens Night Market for the second year in a row. Our visitors were on the dance floor all night! And in addition to all the great feedback we received on social media, the band was punctual and great communicators, very easy to work with. We look forward to having them back again and again!" Based in Manhattan, New York 25th August 2026 Sharon Medina - Queens Night Market Photo of Head Over Heels Band Head Over Heels Band "We hired Head Over Heels for our wedding this past August and they were amazing to work with! We received compliments through the night and the days after our wedding about how good they sounded and how they kept everyone dancing through the night! They played a range of songs and interacted with our guests coming out onto the dance floor and making sure the energy was up! We had a lot of fun activities planned throughout our reception such as hula hooping and a table dash for photos they were fun, flexible, and accommodated all of our requests. We had our ceremony on the beach and the band leader came to the beach to make sure the sound and microphone worked! I can't recommend them enough! There is nothing like a live band and Head Over Heels delivers!!" Based in Manhattan, New York ANNAMARIE SCAVARDA - wedding
